Irish flag to fly over Norwich for St. Patrick’s Day

NORWICH – The Irish community will again raise the green, white and orange colors over the City of Norwich Thursday at the annual St. Patrick’s Day Flag raising ceremony in West Side Park.

The event’s organizers, Chenango County Court Judge W. Howard Sullivan and Norwich City Supervisor Jim McNeil, said this year’s flag raising will likely be shorter than last year’s, which included warm weather, music and hundreds of spectators.
